Research direction

Start by reading the original term_grid Alignment documentation linked in the issue, then inspect this repository’s alignment handling and existing tests. The work is done when a column can be aligned to the right within the requested width and the behavior is covered by the project’s tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Having support for aligning a column to the right of the given width would be much appreciated!

The docs for the original repo impl can be found here: https://docs.rs/term_grid/latest/term_grid/enum.Alignment.html
